Nintendo says playtime data is not lost in the recent glitch

Yesterday Nintendo assured us that the recent reset of playtimes was indeed a glitch, and now they’re confident that the playtime data is not lost for those players who have had theirs reset to zero.

The glitch will be fixed in an upcoming firmware update, and said that stored playtime data has not been reset, only the counter.

It seems like a small issue, but a lot of gamers like to keep track of their play times and progression in a game, which is why Achievements and Trophies are so popular on the Xbox and PlayStation, respectively.

Was your counter reset during the last few days? Let us know in the comments section below.
